    YASMINE HAMADY - FROM AMERICA TO LONDON: A LEBANESE WOMAN BREAKING BARRIERS IN COMEDY & ACTING

    GUYS, the universe has truly guided me to this DIVAAAA!! 💋 Yasmine Hamady (@childishyasmino) is a Lebanese-American actor, writer and comedian. She’s a baddie, she’s an icon, and she’s about to take over the WORLD!! MOST importantly, Yasmine is a fellow BAD ARAB. So much so, that she’s even written her very OWN original play, Bad Arab the Play - and NO, I had absolutely nothing to do with it!! 😭 We found each other on Instagram, instantly connected, fell in love, and now we’re very much supporting each other on our respective Bad Arab journeys. Great minds really do think alike, and that’s on PERIOD. In this episode, we get down + dirty talking about EVERYTHING - from Yasmine’s experience growing up in America, to her hilariously unfiltered stand-up comedy, navigating the entertainment industry (and its criticisms) as an Arab woman, and ultimately, what it REALLY means to be a Bad Arab. And speaking of Bad Arabs… 👀 Bad Arab the Play is premiering at the Old Red Lion Theatre from January 19th–23rd! The play explores - yep, you guessed it - the chaotic, complicated diaspora experience that us Arab girlies know all too well. Two Bad Arabs, two very different creative journeys, and a whole lot to unpack. HABIBTIS, YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THIS ONE!! 💋 SO grateful to have met Yasmine + I can't bloody wait to see her journey with Bad Arab the Play and beyond!! Love u habibteeeeeee 3 GUEST: Yasmine Hamady https://www.instagram.com/childishyasmino/?hl=en HOST: Miss Amira⁠ https://www.instagram.com/miss.amira_...⁠ SOCIALS:⁠ @BadArab__ ENJOY THE EPISODE XOXO

    ELLA WILLS- BROWN, BAD & QUEER | Bad Arab

    OMG sat on the Bad Arab chair this week we've got no other than the hilarious comedian & general legend ELLA WILLS!! Ella, (ellawillstv), is an Iranian/Indian/ North London baddie who's amassed a crazyyy following online for her hilarious comedy sketches, stand up + loud activism for her community. You have DEFO seen her face pop up on your FYP + I can confirm she's just as jokes/more jokes IRL! We get into Ella’s relationship with comedy, why making people laugh can be such a powerful way of connecting with people, and what it’s REALLY like navigating the content creation world as a visibly brown, queer girl. We also get into the slightly less LOL side of things — political activism, hate comments, and mental health! Big love to you Ella for being a part of this!!! 3 GUEST: Ella Wills https://www.instagram.com/ellawillstv/?hl=en HOST: Miss Amira⁠ https://www.instagram.com/miss.amira_...⁠ SOCIALS:⁠ @BadArab__ ENJOY THE EPISODE XOXO
